Attaching lines
Always lay out the flyinglines
from the foil opposite to the wind.
Use lark's head knots to secure the lines to
the foil bridle and the handles (see drawing),
which form loops on the ends of eachflying-
line. Pull the lark's head knots tight on the bridle
or handle line and stop the knots at the
connection points.
When hooking up the lines, ensure that the
flyinglines are correctly secured to the bridle
and the handles and make absolutely
certain that the left and right side and the
power lines (thicker) and brake lines (thinner)
have not been switched.

Securing the foil
A knot leader allows for the foil to be adjusted
at different connection points on the braking
bridle. The bridle is adjusted so that the third
knot provided for good control via the brake
if the flyinglines are the same length (see figure
on page 4).
Once the foil is set up and the lines are con-
nected, secure it to the ground stake. To do this,
wind the brake line around the ground stake
direct on the handles so that the foil remains
flat on the ground while braked. Alternatively,
you can use the extra loops on the lower end of
some 4-line handles.
